CECIL E. PHILLIPS FAY M. BENNETT INVENTORS. BY
BUCKHORN, BLORE, KLARQUIST & SPARKMAN ATTORNEYS This invention relates to tape and bandage cutters and, more particularly; to a cutter for removing the tape that is routinely applied to the wrists and ankles of athletes.
The taping of athletes wrists and ankles is a routine practice engaged in by athletic trainers on behalf of athletes of all types and especially those who compete in contact sports. Such taping is generally preceded by applying a protective coating of benzoin, or elastic paper, gauze or stockinette to the limb which is thereafter wrapped with tape in the manner well known to those who work with athletes.
The removing of the tape at the end of the athletic contest is generally a time consuming operation. Furthermore, if there has been an injury to the joint or limb, it is essential to remove the tape without applying any appreciable pressure to they limb. Since the tape itself is adhered tightly to the skin and consists of several layers in addition to the underlying gauze or stockinet te, the various layers necessarily exert pressure on bone and flesh. If there has been an injury, it is essential that additional pressure'be eliminatedjto avoid further injury.
Accordingly, it isthe primary object of the present invention to provide a tape and bandage cutter that will quickly and efficiently remove protective layers of tape from the joints and limbs of athletes. g v
It is a further object-of the present invention to provide such a cutter that will be effective in removing such tape without exerting any additional pressure against the skin.
It is a still further object of the present invention to provide such a cutter that will move smoothly and without pressure to sever tape overan injury such as a broken bone, skin laceration or severely bruised flesh.-
It is a still further object of the present invention to provide a such a cutter having aremovable blade that can be easilysharpened or replaced and that will not clog with the material being cut.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION v joint or limb by a force applied to the handle member.
\ A cutting blade is removably mounted in a slot in the toe portion, the blade being providedwith a curved cutting edge whichextends outwardly of the toe portion in the direction of the distal end thereof. At least one portion of the edge of the blade extends generally parallel to the tape contacting surface of the toe portion.
At least one roller is mounted in the toe portion extending outwardly from the lower surface thereof to contact the skin during the severing of the tape. Inserting the toe portion of the cutter underneath the tape and drawing the handle in the direction of the distal end of the toe portion causes the rollers at the base thereof smoothly to move over the limb. The tape is thus severed quickly and easily without any additional pressure to the limb. I
BRIEF DESCRIPTION or THE DRAWINGS DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENT Referring to the drawings, there is shown a tape and bandage cutter comprising an elongated handle member 12 of aluminum, brass, steel, plastic or other similar strong material extending, as illustrated, in a generally horizontal direction and having a plurality of finger grip indentations 14 on each side thereof. A hole 15 is formed in the end 16 for attachment to a cord or lanyard (not shown).
Integrally formed with the lower or forward end 17 of handle member 12 is a depending reversely curved toe portion 18, the end 20 of which extends in a direction generally parallel to at least one portion of handle member 12 and, preferably, to the portion 22 thereof. End 20 of toe portion 18 is pointed as at 24 and is thus adapted to be drawn underneath tapeapplied to a wrist or ankle by a force applied to handle member 12.
A stainless steel cutting blade 38 is removably mounted'in slot 32 being retained therein by a knurled head shoulder bolt 40 which extends through blade 38 and is threadedly received into toe portion 18. Blade 38 has parallel edges 41, a blunt curved forward portion 42 joining edges 41, and a curved cutting edge 44 at the rear. Edge 44 is formed generally parallel to forward portion 42 and is honed razor sharp.
The curved portion 45 of edge 44 merges into a generally straight'portion 46 which extends generally parallel to-tape contacting surface 36 of toe portion 18. Curved portion 45 of edge 44 is thus seen to extend outwardly of toe portion 18 in the direction of the distal end 20 thereof, thereby to be able to 1 cut through tape or bandage-like material when toe portion .18 is drawn thereunder by a force applied to handle member 12.
Three nylon rollers 48 are journalefd in recesses 50 provided in plate 26 and toe portion 18. Rollers 48 extend outwardly from the lower surface 52 of the toe portion 18 to ,contact the skin and move easily therealong during severing of the tape. Since the presence of the rollers facilitates movement by re-; lieving normal pressure, cutter 10 is enabled to move smoothly and without pressure even over an injured joint or limb without aggravatingthe injury. Rollers 48 also 'facilitate movement without undue pressure of cutter 10 over bony sections of the body, as for example, over the instep. This is especially helpful in the cm of a fracture ofthe foot during playing periods. Rollers 48 provide similar action over muscular parts of arms and legs in case such sustain a fracture, and they also facilitate removing tape from limbs taped after a fracture has occurred.
In the foregoing description the invention has been described with reference to certain particular preferred embodiments, although it is to be understood that the specific details shown are merely illustrative and that the invention may be carried out in other ways without departing from the true spirit and scope of the following appended claims.
We claim: t
1. A tape and bandage cutter for severing adhesive tape and like material applied to a person's limbs, comprising an elongated curved handle member;

said toe portion being provided with a slot therethrough, said v slot extending along said distal vend of said toe portion generally parallel to the tape contacting surface thereof;
a single cutting blade removably mounted in said slot, said 1 tion of said toe portion; and a roller journaled in each of said recesses, said rollers extending outwardly from said lower portion of said toe portion to contact the skin during severing of said tape and facilitate movement of said cutter therealong.
2. A tape and bandagecutter as in claim 1 in which said rollers comprise nylon rollers.
